Well I had some help in spotting the lies. It was called The Boston Globe. The ‘journalists’ writing in it went, I don’t hesitate to say, a little—or more than a little—crazy during Reagan’s eight yearn tenure. They vilified him daily, and yet at the end of his term, his Veep still won for yet another four years.
I think that’s when the last vestiges of sanity at The Globe went down the drain. It was during the next few years, as they depicted squishy, mild-mannered George H. W. Bush as a three-headed baby-eater, that I came around. I didn’t care for the elder Bush, but I could see he was not Satan embodied.
So in a very real sense I have the Boston Globe to thank for opening my eyes. Liberals; they’re always tripping over unintended consequences.
I remember some rather racists statements about Clarence Thomas made by the Left in the local newspaper. It was unbelievable what the Left were saying about him and in a public forum! After all the Left were all about minority rights and Thomas was a MINORITY!!
In my opinion, this is the Democrat party's Achilles heel and the quickest way to convert Democrats to Republicans (as happened to the person in this article, and to me, and to you).
